US Classification:

361801, 361798

Abstract:

A modular DIMM carrier and riser slot device includes a slot section having a slot configured to hold a plurality of memory device planars, a first latch disposed at a first end of the slot section and pivotably connected to the slot section and capable of securing a first end of the memory device planars; a second latch disposed at a second end of the slot section and pivotably connected to the slot section and capable of securing a second end of a first memory device planar, and a third latch pivotably connected to the slot section and disposed intermediate between the first and the second latches, the third latch capable of securing a second end of a second memory device planar. The slot section has an auxiliary slot section defined as an section between the second latch and the third latch. The auxiliary slot section includes a notch for receiving the third latch when the third latch is in a disengaged position, a retention notch that restrains movement of the third latch when the third latch is in an engaged position, and a power and signaling section that includes power and signaling connections usable by one or more of the memory device planars.

Abstract:

An apparatus comprises a shipping box containing an access area and a configurable electronic device. The configurable electronic device comprises an electrical connector accessible via the access area on the shipping box. The configurable electronic device also comprises a management module that receives electrical power via the electrical connector when a single external cable is mated to the electrical connector through the access area. The management module receives configuration information via the single external cable while the configurable electronic device is still in the shipping box and without having host logic in the configurable electronic device being powered up. In other embodiments, multiple configurable electronic devices can be reconfigured simultaneously and wirelessly by an external programming unit.
